Georgia Lions Lighthouse Foundation, Inc. Surgery Program

Vision surgery is the program upon which Georgia Lions Lighthouse Foundation was founded, and today serves more than 300 Georgians annually. We rely on our dedicated staff, volunteers, partnering doctors, hospitals and generous donors
to keep vision surgery free to all who qualify.

Surgery costs depend on the severity of need, with the average single-eye surgery costing approximately $1,250. All funds raised through the White Cane Initiative support clients of Georgia Lions Lighthouse Foundation who need vision surgeries, lack insurance coverage and cannot afford to pay for the surgery themselves.
